So Many Concerns
Made a lane change in the argument
Slight miscalculation of what was said
Saw the fist making it’s usual descent
Punches connected like bolts of dread
Rage always seems to claim her face
Light is eclipsed in transforming eyes
The calm before the darkest embrace
When she removes her normal disguise
Soon all the anger will go into remission
Ride out the storm until reason returns
Knowing how to remedy this condition
Her love comes with so many concerns
Slight miscalculation of what was said
Saw the fist making it’s usual descent
Punches connected like bolts of dread
Rage always seems to claim her face
Light is eclipsed in transforming eyes
The calm before the darkest embrace
When she removes her normal disguise
Soon all the anger will go into remission
Ride out the storm until reason returns
Knowing how to remedy this condition
Her love comes with so many concerns

Bandaids
Time
It comes and it goes
Something’s aren’t meant to last forever
What started off as I love you
Slowly turned to I hate you
Or maybe I hate myself
For loving you so much
You’ve torn me down and broken me
For that I should be grateful
Or so you remind me
I deserved it it’s all my fault
Or so you remind me
You stripped me of my pride
You stripped me of my dignity
And between the bruises
I love yous meant like bandaids
But they don’t band do they
And through it all
My...

A boy and a gun
She came home from her job
Not a great job, but a job
Her husband has been unemployed for 3 years
Says he's looking for the right job to make a name for himself
They don't have enough money to feed themselves and their 8 year old son
They live in a one room apartment that has a horrible smell coming from the ceiling and the side wall near the closet
They all share the same bed
Mom sleeps in the middle since the boys father has been known to touch him inappropriately
There were numerous verbal & physical fights in the apartment
It was usually...

Love Shouldn't Hurt
I'll handle with care
Other hands have damaged you
Put your trust in me
Other hands have damaged you
Put your trust in me

The Aliens Have Arrived
Yelling cursing, noise level terror
Then he hits her
She cries
Things get quiet, then it starts again
Locked in his room, the boy sits on the floor next to his bed
That's the place he goes when they go at it
Mother & Alien, this man/boyfriend
This thing that watches TV or it's i-phone and drinks long cans of malt liquor in the dark
Sometimes the Alien is there when his mother isn't
The Alien doesn't talk
The Alien drinks, beats mother & watches TV
The boy knows that he's lucky the Alien doesn't beat on him
Other Aliens have...

Two Sides To Everyone
Yesterday I was in the laundromat washing & drying my clothes
This suspicious looking asshole comes in and starts asking people if they want "some"
Everyone was minding their own business, doing their thing
I saw one guy ask what "some" meant
The guy said, "Some, u know like Heroin, Cocaine, Ecstasy, shit like that!"
The guy stuttered and said, "nanananooo thanks"
This muthafucker now was approaching me
He came up to me and said, "Bro I know you were listening, you want some stuff?"
I said go fuck...

A Loving Family
The four of them got out of the car
The husband, the wife, the kid & the dog
The kid spills his soda on the back seat as he's leaving the car
WHACK!!
The husband hits the kid right in the mouth
You little pig fucker
I just had this cleaned
The wife leans over and say,
"WHY DID YOU DO THAT YOU DOPE!!"
The husband turns around and
WHACK!!
He claps her right on her left side
This makes the dog mad
The dog comes over and tries to bite the husband's leg
